It's stupid. Do you need any other reason to laugh at it?

I would argue getting mad over something so trivial as sad.

The genocide being committed in Palestine is something that makes me mad.

The fact that we are happy for our largest companies to outsource work to poorer countries makes me mad.

The fact that corporations seemingly control the world and don’t pay their fair share makes me mad.

Apple making a MacMini with a button on the bottom is irrelevant to me, in the grand scheme of things it’s not even an issue.

No one is genuinely mad. It's just fun to mock them.

Fun fact: it's possible to be mad about those things while also thinking a button is stupidly placed. It's perfectly fine to not care about this at all, but acting like that is just annoying as fuck. Please just abstain.

To each their own I guess, I prefer to just abstain from mockery as I don’t see how it changes anything.

That said I respect your right to write what you want and hope you have a nice rest of your day. 😊

I would absolutely agree if Apple was a person with feelings, but fair enough.

Have a nice day/night

Is it really that stupid though. And is it any worse than flush with the back of the computer so you can never tell if you've hit it until you've really pressed the button or it bongs?

They should have put the button on the top or front like any other company would do.
